Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Cormac Whelan (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Pedro Fuentes (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Whelan might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Bonny Portmore. Fuentes has chosen Transplants - Killafornia as his entrance music. These two fighters really are very evenly matched on the feet - it will be fascinating to see who can assert themselves in that aspect of the fight.
